This is just an overall comment: It's incredibly sad that there is such animus in the community as a direct result of the lack of leadership and failure of street design. I want my neighbors to be happy and I want the streets to be pedestrian and biker focused. It seems that the overall city leadership is happy to cram more cars into the city, despite the obvious and terrifying reality of Climate Change. This might be a chance for this community to be leaders - to show that the future of cities eliminate cars and prioritize AND SUBSIDIZE bike, foot, and mass transit. All the best to you all.
This is a main pedestrian crossing, and it's basically a six lane highway - create a larger median, a raised crosswalk, remove 2 lanes of traffic.
Driver's move too fast through here and often don't stop. This should be removed and the park extended.
Nassau is a biking nightmare: two way traffic, buses, deliveries - and the "shared bike lane" is mainly just trying to survive. I ride every day and avoid this street at all costs - especially with a child. I'd rather ride against traffic on Driggs than on Nassau. This should be an exclusive bus and bike street.
This is a very tricky transition from bridge to street - and it's hard to get from the the north side of mcguinness to the Pulaski bridge.
This is one of three intersections (Briggs, Nassau, and Norman) that should be re-designed for a much shorter crossing, with safe islands in the median. People have to cross these to get to schools, the library, shops, and trains. These are essential pedestrian streets and they have been largely surrendered to cars. Please make drastic changes. Thanks.
McGuiness blvd was and always be a commercial roadway. As long as everyone understands that it is mostly trucks that move food applicances clothing furniture all around our city. We need this Strret to remain the way it is. Everyone needs to stay off their phones and bikes while crossing this street. I have lived here for 60 years and cross that street nearly everyday on my way to work and I have never gotten hit by a car or trick but I have been hit by bicycles who don’t observe the lights or directions of the street.
Cyclists and electric scooters not stopping at red lights and weaving in and out of traffic.
This comment is for ALL of Greenpoint and Williamsburg - 98% of bicyclists are reckless, cut in front of drivers and expect them to stop short as to not hit them! They act like THEY own the streets and the POLICE need to start giving out tickets for them and if unpaid - take away their bicycles - that should be registered with license plates. They want to ride in the street and have the same privileges as cars do - then they should abide by the same RULES and PUNISHMENTS as drivers of cars do! END OF STORY PERIOD!
Bicycles have no place on McGuiness. I bike regularly and still wouldn’t use it if there was a bike lane. What McGuiness needs are more speed cameras and perhaps even speed bumps to keep dangerous drivers under control. Turning into one lane of traffic would be disastrous from a traffic and a pollution standpoint as there would be more idling and it would affect the many residents that are located along that route
